Jackson locals know Two Sisters’ Kitchen well. Step onto the front porch and through the door of the two-story Victorian-style house (built in the same year, 1903, as the “new” Capitol), and you’re greeted immediately by the fantastic aromas of the hot lunch buffet—and, most likely, by Alford herself.​The deceptively simple presentation—complete with the hard plastic plates many of us remember from our public schools days—belies the award-winning (and, we mean award-winning) fried chicken served six days a week, supplemented by fried catfish on many days and country-fried steak with tomato gravy on Sundays.
